Private Practice remotely by phone or video.

About

Alison MacNeil

I believe emotional pain is a signal we need to make changes. Symptoms of depression and anxiety, overfunctioning in relationships, over work, heavy reliance on substances or alcohol are all telling us something needs to shift. Familiar patterns of behavior may have served you in the past, but aren't working now. It can be hard to identify what's getting in the way of moving forward and to believe you can make necessary changes. I'd like to be a guide in helping you get 'unstuck' so that you can move more freely towards what is important to you.

I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 28 years using a combination of Psychodynamic principles, (CBT) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, (DBT) Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and EMDR. I am passionate about helping my clients make the changes they desire in their lives.

I have been affiliated with Boston College Graduate School of Social Work as an Adjunct Professor since 1997. Help with a perplexing case? Looking to gain clinical confidence? In need of trustworthy professional support and guidance? Strengthening your professional self as a clinician is extremely important to me.

I have been a DBT Educator and Facilitator in over 26 Boston area agencies; training new staff in DBT theory, leading DBT Consultation/Supervision Groups for Individual Therapists and Skills Trainers and creating and building DBT Teams in Partial Hospitalization Programs, Outpatient Mental Health Centers and smaller Group Practices. I am available to support the Individual DBT provider, the team or the agency.
